The Governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara, has defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Naija News reports that Fubara announced this at a stakeholders’ meeting at the Government House in Port Harcourt.
Fubara’s defection comes hours after he held a closed-door meeting with President Bola Tinubu at the State House, Abuja.
He was dressed in a deep-blue long-sleeve shirt, black trousers, and a black flat cap, and was sighted walking the corridors toward the President’s office at 5:01 p.m. after Ebonyi State Governor, Francis Nwifuru, had also been ushered in for a separate engagement.
